Welcome to Fractures—a new, collaborative publication, dedicated to uncovering and analyzing the tensions, conflicts, and instabilities shaping our world today.

Our goal is to provide thoughtful analysis, unique insight, and a mix of both objective coverage and editorial freedom in order shed light on the nuanced and often overlooked dynamics behind global events.

What We’re About:

Information is abundant yet understanding is scarce. Often in the security industry, there is a tendency towards hyper-vigilance, without humanizing perspectives. Academic writing in the field, while often providing more space for context, still can be removed or feel inaccessible to those impacted.

What we’ve set out to create with Fractures is a more holistic approach to these challenges. Our publication is not just about delivering news, or a mill for intelligence briefings; it’s about delivering insight—contextualizing events, exploring causes, and challenging prevailing narratives.

Why “Fractures”?

We chose the name "Fractures" to symbolize our focus on the divides, the points of tension, and the shifts that define today's world. Fractures represent moments of potential, where change—whether constructive or destructive—is imminent. From cyber conflicts to political movements, from economic rifts to cultural shifts, Fractures aims to capture these pivotal moments and help our readers understand the forces at play.

Who We Are:

Fractures is an international collaborative project of analysts, writers, and thinkers with backgrounds in fields ranging from cybersecurity and combat instruction, to international relations and journalism. Each of us brings a unique perspective, united by a shared commitment to clarity, accuracy, and independence.

What to Expect:

In the near future, we’ll be establishing a roadmap of deliverables for our readers. Eventually, they can expect a variety of content, including:

  • In-depth Analyses: Comprehensive articles that break down complex issues, providing historical, social, and political context.

  • Timely Updates: Shorter posts that address unfolding events and provide immediate insights.

  • Interviews and Opinions: Engaging discussions with experts and thought-provoking perspectives on current issues.

  • Visual and Audio Content: Infographics, podcasts, and video breakdowns to make complex topics more accessible and engaging.

Why a Co-op?

As Fractures takes off, we’ll be aspiring to a co-op model. We believe that collaboration and shared ownership make us stronger. As a co-op, Fractures Media can value each contributor’s voice and insight, nurturing an environment where our work is both rigorous and diverse. Our model hopes to ensure that each member is not only a contributor, but a stakeholder, allowing us to prioritize integrity and depth over speed and clicks.
